The problems are:
- the political reversal of multiple soundly-based letters already issued
- the twisting and abuse of the written words of the law
- the taking of property without compensation.
“- the twisting and abuse of the written words of the law”
This is the part that matters. If the ban stands, it means the president can rewrite law without congress. That is major big league bad.
This ban is not about bump stocks. It’s about the legitimate extent of presidential power.
This one is the kicker for me.
I don't personally like bump-stocks; however demanding property of something the legislature doesn't like? That is wrong. I cannot believe this is not headed for SCOTUS already.
